Humans will always believe in some otherness floating out just beyond their daily lives. A clean slate and some clean laundry on a small craft as buoyant as hope

Yet, they will likely do just as their ancestors have done since long before Homer and Aesop… Choosing from among the most charismatic and successful gods or performers and calling that raft faith or truth.

For pigs, there is no raft to belly up to. The simple prosaic pleasures of another day lived through had better be enough.
